In order to facilitate more widespread testing, I have just placed source and (Windows) binaries in the ghrr drat repo from which you can install the new version simply via

drat:::add("ghrr") # if you have drat installedinstall.packages("Rblpapi") # uses the drat version b/c higher version number than release

Alternatively you can also do

drat:::add("ghrr") # if you have drat installedupdate.packages() # refresh all packages against all repos

We would appreciate wider testing, and feedback / bug reports / … via the issue tracker. PRs with unit test suggestions would also be most welcome — we now use RUnit and run the tests if a file ~/.R/rblpapiOptions.R exists which sets the options() values for automatic connection (see help(blpConnect)) as well as the blpUnitTests=TRUE option. This is needed to ‘opt-in’ as standard test setups at [Travis])(https://travis-ci.org/) or CRAN will not have access to a Bloomberg terminal.
